Didnt watch of last nights show and as I have said on the strictly thread my heart wasnt in anything yesterday.

But from what I did see, I think Janet was grately improved, she seem more confident and mature, Craig sang and did exactly what I thought he would. MischaB bad move going for the sympathy vote and all the tears tsk tsk however excellent vocals. Little Mix were good.

I thought Marcus was definitely best, he didn't just sing, he gave a performance. And for goodness sake, why Misha had to produce all those tears I don't know, Doesn't she think her voice is good enough without them? I thought Janet was much stronger and better, Didn't like Craig so much, Little Mix were good.

Janet was better yesterday than she has been. I liked Little Mix, Marcus and Amelia too. Agree Hayley, Craig was predictable and Mischa's tears didn't impress me. I'd like to see Craig and Mischa in the bottom two tonight.

Oh I forgot Amelia, yes she was good too.

yeah agree i think Mischa will be bottom 2 and probably Craig as well, don`t think theres a great deal between the rest of them...no outstanding act, think any of them could win......would love to see Little Mix win.

Thought it was Janets best performance and i actually enjoyed her voice in it, marcus was good, Amelia not as good as last week


Is anyone watching US Xfactor......? they have some brilliant people on there, far higher standard than on our UK version, xfactors getting slammed in the press here and everyones blaming it on Simon Cowell not being there, but personally I just think this isn`t a particularly great year for Talent..previous years have been lots better, and i really like the current judging line up but think Louie ought to go...they should bring back Danni in his place..that way they`d have 4 artists as judges rather than people who just manage in the music industry.

Sooo its......CRAIG or AMELIA......l think Craig will go, real shame but Amelia is better...but we'll have to wait and see:))))

:))))

Poor Craig though, but he certainly won't be working in the biscuit factory again!!
He's brilliant and should go far:)

I love his voice but he had a rotten song this week. Amelia is more of a pop star though. Although, they keep saying pop star but I am sure the criteria is 'recording' star.

Craigs gone then........... Hope Amelia does better next week , as I prefer her to both Janet and Mischa, can`t believe Gary said she shouted her way thru that save me song...I thought she was brilliant, and thought Craigs version of that lovely song Will You Still Love Me Tommorow was dull and boring....



Nicky

I think he was right to go, think he gone too serious Gary's comment was cruel and uncalled for and I do hope Marcus wont suffer because of it

I think Marcus will be ok..........looks like we may have our 3 finalists now...

Marcus, Little Mix and Janet


They are the only 3 of the 5 remaining that have never been in the bottom 2 ,so are presumably picking up more votes than the other 2 acts..

I'm loving Misha B every week, she has given such consistently professional performances. However, the public hasn't been voting, I suspect it was after the allegation of bullying some weeks ago. It shouldn't have happened. She would be amazing as a recording artist and for stage productions.

I loved Janet so much, especially in her initial choice of songs which suited that lilt so much. It is such an individual voice, she would also make wonderful recordings.

Marcus is good as an all round entertainer, just not seeing him so much as a recording artist, more Royal Variety!

Amelia is very talented as a rock chick, she is so young to have such a presence on stage.

Sorry Nickydown south. You will have to re-think. We actually didn't see the performance last night but I was not surprised when Janet and MishaB were in the last two that Janet would be the one to go out. The judges want MishaB to win that has been obvious all along. Sorry, I can't like her. Technically she has a good voice but doesn't have the charisma that she should have, the warm personality. If she wins she is going to be very high maintenance.

Ann I second that there is just something about her ...she appears a tad false too man croc tears, it was time for Janet to go she totally blew it last night I mean how can you forget the words to dooo woop doo woop ...yes she has talent and is special but an acquired taste... but not mine..

I think our3 finalist will be amelia Marcus and Little Mix :-D

That is who it should be Hayley but I fear that the judges will keep MishaB in.

Glad I got it wrong about Janet.....thought the whole of Ireland may have been voting for her so she may have been in to the bitter end, she does have an unusual voice but personally i don`t like it....Mischa is every inch the pop star with a brilliant voice but......i like others just can`t take to her.

Would be happy to see Marcus, Emilia or Little Mix win..., but probably Little Mix the most..., think they have incredible voices for such young girls.......either way i think they will get signed by a recording company anyway...


Nicky

Its the semi's tonight my hot fav to go tonight/tomorrow is MichaB :-D

Agree think Mischa B will go tonight, though I think she was actually probably the best over the 2 songs last night, Marcus and Little Mix were both disapointing, but hope its just a blip and they pull it together for next week if they make the final...


Nicky

I've been waiting for this thread to come up today.

We were not impressed by any of the songs the contestants did for the Tamala night. Each song should have been given to each other, we felt.. The mentors had got it totally mixed up. I mean, it is not as if there was not alot to choose from.
I think Marcus, who I favour, could have made mincemeat of the song chosen for their charity Christmas number 1., Just Wish Upon a Star.
We watched until Mischa B sang her second song and threw in the towel and turned over. Neither of us had heared of it. This is a common mistake on these talent programmes, when mentors get their singers to sing a track off someones album. They need to sing something people have heared of, or, no matter how good they are, people will not vote for them.

Rant over, and just my opinion.

Micha B was good but she would of the rock the roof if she done Athrea Franklin which is quiet capable off ..

The Girls could done baby love ....... and Marcus could of done with something more up beat, like tears of a clown , I think Ameila did an excellent job ant no moutain high enough as she did both versions.
